Medical Director for Med Spas & Wellness Practices in Florida

One coordinated governance structure, defined by your services and clinical team.

Governance components

See what is included, how the engagement starts, and which requirements are reviewed before your facility is accepted.

  • Services defined for your facility and team
  • Initial setup and ongoing governance explained separately
  • Official sources for the regulatory context

Official sources reviewed September 8, 2026. Fees and acceptance limits are MFMD policies; legal requirements are identified separately.

01
MFMD services

What ongoing governance includes

Your assigned physician reviews the agreed treatment menu, licensed team, protocols, records, safety processes, and issues requiring follow-up. Collaboration or supervision for one NP/PA is included in the base fee and documented for the assigned provider. Your clinical team remains responsible for patient evaluation, treatment decisions, prescribing, and hands-on care within its authority.

02
Before you begin

What initial setup includes

We build the clinical foundation for the selected services: provider responsibilities, individualized protocols, evaluation and consent workflows, records, safety procedures, and escalation. A practice with usable protocols may need review rather than a complete rebuild. The estimator uses your practice status and protocol answer to prepare the setup estimate for review.

03
Your practice

Two service groups, with individual clinical documents

Aesthetics, IV therapy, and wellness injections share the Wellness & Aesthetic group. Weight management, BHRT/TRT, and Advanced Peptide Therapy share Medical Wellness. Adding services within one group does not automatically raise the base monthly fee, but each accepted treatment needs the appropriate documented clinical controls. Use the individual service pages below to see the specific responsibilities.

04
Rules and responsibilities

Our cash-pay, non-AHCA service pathway

MFMD serves cash-pay, non-AHCA wellness and aesthetic facilities without requiring physician ownership or an AHCA exemption certificate as a condition of this service pathway. Florida §400.9935(6) describes a voluntary certificate application for entities that are not clinics as defined by the Act. Our acceptance focuses on supported services, licensed staffing, an EMR, and coverage. MFMD does not provide AHCA licensing or exemption application consulting.

05
Your team

The team your practice needs

MFMD supports an RN-executed model for aesthetic medicine and IV/injection services within the nurse’s authorized role, with the required patient evaluation, orders, training, and supervision in place. Weight management, BHRT/TRT, and Advanced Peptide Therapy require at least one NP or PA on the facility roster under MFMD’s service model. You may identify a planned APP while estimating; the provider and collaboration arrangements must be confirmed before activation. One APP is included in the base fee. An RN or electrologist does not replace the APP required for Medical Wellness.

06
Your investment

How the fee works

One wellness service group is $1,500/month; both groups together are $2,000/month. Collaboration or supervision for 1 APP is included; each additional APP is $500/month and each electrologist addition is $500/month. Initial setup is $2,000 for one group or $3,000 for both, including the first 30 days of governance. Adding the second group to an accepted existing operation is $1,000; a new procedure protocol within an accepted group is $250. The proposal confirms which setup applies.

07
Getting started

From your menu to a defined agreement

Enter the facility ZIP, choose the applicable services, and describe your team and existing protocols. Review your estimate before providing contact details. MFMD then reviews the operating facts and documents, confirms the assigned physician, initial on-site assessment, scheduled visits, and any required treatment-day arrangements, and issues the agreed scope and start date. An EMR is required and must be in use with physician access before governance begins. You may complete a planning estimate while choosing the platform; paper-only clinical operations are not accepted. No clinical services begin merely because a form was submitted.

08
Optional support

Pharmacy and vendor accounts

Clinical review of pharmacies, products, and formularies is included. When MFMD participation is needed to establish or maintain up to 2 approved accounts, account setup and administration adds $500/month. The same account-support charge applies to an APP-led Medical Wellness practice or an RN-executed aesthetic/IV practice; it does not change professional authority. For example, weight management plus Advanced Peptide Therapy in one group, with one included APP and account administration, is $2,000/month; initial setup for that group is $2,000. Medication, pharmacy, device, and third-party charges are separate.

09
Start with the operating facts

Direct pay does not make a medical service nonmedical.

The clinical structure begins with what the practice offers, who owns it, who evaluates and orders treatment, who performs each procedure, and how medications or devices are sourced. AHCA licensure or exemption analysis remains a separate facility-specific question.

10
Service-to-license map

Every treatment needs a responsible evaluation, order, performer, and escalation path.

MFMD maps each service to the licensed roles involved, then connects the Good-Faith Exam workflow, role-specific protocols, standing orders, documentation, emergency response, and physician review.

11
Hybrid oversight

Remote review works when it is connected to the physical clinic.

Recurring chart review, meetings, protocol maintenance, and escalation can occur remotely. On-site involvement is planned when the accepted scope, equipment, procedure, onboarding, or a material event requires it.

Service-specific questions

Clear answers before the estimate.

The final answer depends on the facility, licensed roster, payer model, and proposed services.

Does every Florida Med Spa need an AHCA license?

No. The answer depends on the entity’s ownership, payer model, services, and the statutory exemptions that may apply. A business name or cash-pay model alone does not establish the answer.

Does a Med Spa need a Medical Director?

The correct physician-governance structure depends on the medical services offered and the licensed professionals involved. MFMD first maps who evaluates, prescribes or orders, performs, supervises, and handles exceptions before proposing a scope.

What does MFMD provide to a Med Spa or wellness clinic?

Each accepted scope documents the applicable evaluation workflow, role-controlled protocols and standing orders, service-to-license mapping, credential controls, chart review, adverse-event escalation, medication governance, and direct physician access.

Can medical direction be remote?

The recurring governance cycle can be largely remote when clinically and operationally appropriate. MFMD is a hybrid service and schedules on-site involvement according to the facility and accepted service lines.

Can we choose our clinical platform?

Yes. The facility may use any MFMD-approved digital platform that supports complete records, authenticated signatures, timestamps, controlled access, and timely remote physician review. The EMR must be in use before governance begins; paper-only clinical records are not accepted. Printing and mailing a PIP claim package from the EMR is a separate billing workflow.

How much does a Med Spa Medical Director cost?

MFMD planning starts at $1,500 per month for Wellness & Aesthetic (Med Spa) or Medical Wellness services. Combining both service groups is $2,000 per month. Additional APPs, electrologists, locations, and implementation can change the final services and cost.

How do we begin?

Choose the wellness and aesthetic pathway, enter the location, licensed team, and actual service menu, review the preliminary monthly amount, and submit the configuration for MFMD physician review.

Does an estimate confirm that you can accept my facility?

No. It provides a planning amount from your answers. Acceptance depends on coverage, licensure, professionals, services, and assigned-physician availability. Excluded services are not accepted through an automatic additional charge.

Does MFMD provide direct patient care, legal services, or payer credentialing?

These governance services do not automatically include direct patient care, prescriptions, payer credentialing, AHCA application preparation, or legal representation. MFMD is not a law firm. Statutory duties of an accepted clinic’s director remain in effect, including billing review where applicable.

Who will be the assigned physician?

MFMD confirms a physician according to qualifications, services, location, and availability. Armando A Falcon, MD, is the Founder and CEO; a page or estimate does not promise that he will be every facility’s physician.
